Shi Hengpei and Shi Hengyuan are from Shaolin Temple USA which has a branch here in Fremont. Apparently they did a little demo for our Main Library on 1/21.

Of course, there's been a ton of little Shaolin demos like this for Chinese New Years. The newsfeeds have been littered with them.

The Shaolin In My Heart Shaolin Kungfu Show
Monday, October 12at 7:00pm
Performing Arts Center, Chabot College
25555 Hesperian Blvd, Hayward, California 94545

According to this facebook page, tickets are available at http://chineseticketbox.com but I couldn't find the listing.

I'm not sure if this is connected to The-4th-Shaolin-Cultural-Festival-San-Francisco-CA-Oct-8-11-2015 of not. Chineseticketbox has handled previous Shaolin events. But then, given what's happening with the Abbot right now, who knows what will happen?

I'm taking this up on our The-4th-Shaolin-Cultural-Festival-San-Francisco-CA-Oct-8-11-2015
